Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.

I made this quick test case but can't seem to reproduce your problem in IE6.

Please report back if you can provide a reduced test case on http://jsfiddle.net which reproduces your issue.

Ticket #8060 (closed bug: worksforme)

Opened 5 weeks ago

Last modified 5 weeks ago $(":checkbox").attr("checked","checked");not effect under ie6

I can reproduce a scenario where the above is true... i.e. doesn't check in IE6.0 when does in FF/Safari/IE7/8.

Create an object and try .attr( "checked", true ); before adding the item to an item already in the document.

For example... http://jsfiddle.net/protoriumatwork/MwtCW/4/

My guess is IE6 isn't happy until the object you are modifying actually exists in the document and can be obtained using document.getElementById... This isn't a major issue and may be using jQuery as it was not intended, but if jquery combined with other popular browsers allows this then shouldnt jQuery and IE 6.0?

I'm starting to think this is not an issue with attr, but an issue encountered somewhere between setting the attribute and appending it to the DOM. Before appending, the attribute is set correctly. After appending, it is no longer set. updated test case pic of ie6 and ie7 failure
